I have not seen different creepy crawlies eaten, but rather I think in the event that it moves, it is considered sustenance some place.

Where I lived in Bangkok, Sukhumvit Soi 4, consistently beginning around 5:00 PM, there was a road merchant with about six sorts of browned and barbecued bugs and scorpions; her clients were primarily the bar young ladies in the range. Consistently she was very occupied as the young ladies consider these bugs a wonderful nibble, and crunch on them as much of the time as Western individuals chomp on potato chips.

The woman merchant does not talk any English, but rather will posture with her products for a photo in the event that you give her a 20 baht (around 60 pennies) tip. Also, in case you’re overcome, you could simply purchase a pack of southern style bamboo worms.
